CHICAGO - DePaul men's soccer presents the 2014 summer camp program which will feature three types of camps---including an overnight camp July 24-25 for students intent on playing soccer at the collegiate level.

The Elite Residential Overnight Camp and the Elite One-Day Camp (June 27) are for any and all incoming high school freshmen through incoming college freshmen and junior college players (boys only).

In addition, men’s soccer will team up with DePaul women’s soccer to conduct a Youth Day Camp July 14-18 for any and all boys and girls age 5-13.

The philosophy of the DePaul soccer camps is to provide a safe, positive soccer environment for the competitive soccer athlete who wants to improve and be a successful soccer player.

The Youth Camp is designed to focus on individual skill development with each player and encourages campers to learn in a fun and friendly atmosphere.

The Elite One-Day Camp and Elite Residential Camp are designed to simulate a Division I college soccer atmosphere for high school-aged players, incoming college freshmen and junior college players. These camps provide participants a taste of what college soccer is all about.

Overnight campers will be housed in student dormitories just like the Blue Demon soccer players and experience DePaul campus life in the upscale Lincoln Park community.

The men’s soccer camps will be directed by DePaul head coach Craig Blazer and assistant coach Craig Reynolds and can include past and current DePaul players.

2014 DePaul Soccer Youth Day CampThe DePaul men's and women's programs team up in 2014 to direct the coed youth camp. Our day camp will focus on individual and group skill development in a fun and friendly atmosphere. Each day will focus on a different technical skill, reinforced through small-sided games and a World Cup tournament. Campers will be divided up by age and skill level in order to give each camper the best chance to learn and succeed during our camp.
